Why does chucky get so much hate and we need to buff him

I am chucky main and I had this topic in my head for 2 months and why do we keep nerfing chucky he just does not feel fun anymore so here is the story of chucky in dead by daylight.

Patch 7.4.0

The good guy was added in dead by daylight people thought he would never be in the game but he came

chucky was considered an S tier killer even the 3rd best killer in the game chucky was different his slice and dice speed was much faster and his scamper was a lot different because he could do it manually and he could do 180 flick that would make wesker mains cry but they were removed shortly after he came out

In the 8.0.0 update after 6 month after chucky's realise he got his manual scamper removed and this turned out to be a very controversial change also when the manual scamper was removed some chucky mains are hoping it will come back but in a balanced way like myself

In the 8.4.0 update chucky got a buff and nerf they made the scamper time from 1.3 seconds to 1 second and increased his Hide Ho cooldown from 10 seconds to 12 seconds and nerfed rat poison because considerd a very strong add on

When chucky turned into a trash In a hot fix of the 8.4.1 he got his slice and dice decreased to 8 m and they increased his slice and duration to 1.8 seconds and his cooldown to 14 seconds which made him very bad

When got buffed in the 8.7.1 patch I think chucky just got buffed they made his slice and dice speed not to clunky and they decrease his Hide Ho cooldown back to 12 seconds and he now starts with his power

sadly chucky at the moment is high c low b but i have a way to make him more fun and balanced here are my changes

The good guy medium update

Increase Hide-Ho cooldown to 13 seconds (was 12)

Increase slice and dice speed to 9.5 (mps) (was 8m)

Scamper can be done without using a slice and dice attack but you scamper you exit your power when scampering under a pallet (manually) does not exit you when scampering a window

Scamper time 1.6 seconds

Increase scamper time to 1.1 seconds (was 1 second)

Add-ons

Hard Hat, increase scamper time to 1.8 seconds but you don't exit your power when breaking and scampering under a pallet

Piles of Nails, removes laugh effect when exiting Hide-Ho and your undetectable for 6 seconds (was 3 seconds)

Mirror shards, when a survivor steps over your foot falls they scream and there aura is revealed for 3 seconds

Running shoes, 3% haste for 4.5 seconds (was 2% haste for 5 seconds)

Power drill, reduces your Hide-Ho cooldown when slice and dicing into a window or pallet by 10%

Behaviour if you read this pls try to do this change it would make so much more fun and balanced also better

    Chucky gets hate for being one of the least unique dash killers with hardly any unique skill set, since he doesn't take as much skill as other killers he shouldn't be good

    Also, manual scamper being removed is hardly controversial, it was an unarguably good decision

    he’s a very boring killer and not unique. Being able to disappear every 10 secs with a dash that takes little skill is very boring.

    Personally I hated him during his prime because every chucky I went against would hard tunnel at 5 gens for no reason

    What do you mean? He only has one cosmetic where he wears a hat.

    "Chucky gets too many hat cosmetics why not fix bugs" is the new "Devs only make Feng cosmetics" :D

    Manual scamper being removed in exchange for a better power cooldown was a good idea but then still people complained becouse OMG HOW DARE A 110 KILLER HAVE A STRONG CHASE POWER. He was good then got butchered then got buffed a bit. All chucky needs right now is better speed for his dash and an add-on pass to be at least somewhat strong again.

    No now they make only sable cosmetics because her female parts are bigger and she is goth girl which more people like, but feng and then mikaela are probably best skins and ada is harder because she is licensed so she is more restricted with skins. For the killers most skins have killers which are easier and have more open options to have skins like legion or dreadge but other weaker killers like knight, doctor or very popular ones like blight have a lot of skins and good ones too.

    Devs treated chucky like kids do to toys when they grow up they stop playing with them and then throw them into corner behind bed or some cabinet,locker. He wont get some love because he is just very hated killer for no reason others are knight,ghoul,clown or famos skullmerchant but nowdays survivors even hate killers that were very popular for long time even by many survivor mains and especialy content creators like demogorgon who was famos demodog now being hated as lame zoning killer.

    I can be seen on all very strong killers especialy if they arent supper hard but why is this case. I think its because these killers attract more players which want to win you will see many p100 nurses and blights tunnel but compare them to p100 trappers or clowns they tunnel to but difference is one do it because its easier on strong killers and more effective and others do it because they need to get preasure on survivors but their killer kit is more limited so they kinda must do it in some cases thats it.
